Whack, please get back, wake up on the attack Work myself frantic to the moon and back Now it's evening and the sausages are frying out back I write my rhyme for this track as the sky fade to black

Now I remember earlier in the day as I was swimming through the bay A bass player I know swum my way, he said, "G'day Hey wanna go see some reggae? Starts at 8 and plays through to sunrise the next day"

N.C.

So 9 o'clock sees me heading out towards to tabernacle Hardcore reggae beat bring me feet out of these shackles Hardcore reggae DJ I Salute you, crackle crackle crackle Crackle of the vinyl, now I'm high, now a spectacular night ahead

N.C.

I met a Mexican called Juan (There's a party on the hill would you like to come?) Yeah (And bring a bottle of rum) Can't afford it, but I bought it Right then I sung

N.C.

It's nights like these that you know that your alive Nights like these that you know that you got fire Nights like these when you don't have to try Fall in love and kiss and smile from every girl walking by

N.C.

I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive And my eyes want to cry cause the night and the sky Is so high and my life is sublime and it's mine and it's time (It's now time)

N.C.

It's nights like these when you know that your alive Nights like these when you know that you got fire Nights like these when you're laughing til you cry Nights like these when I'm drowning in your eyes

N.C.

It's nights like these when you know that your alive Nights like these when you know that you got fire Nights like these when you're laughing til you cry It's all about love and giving
